Wyrd, hailing from Finland, is creating some of the most original and amazing black metal in the world today. Inspired from and by Nature and the roots of his Nordic Soul. Melding elements of folklore and the forest with 'traditional norweigan black metal' this album consits of one epic journey, a 55+ mintute song.

"This album is epic, beautiful and very folk oriented. Enchanting riffs combined with an extensive vocal range that pays tribute to nature keep the listener compelled, and wanting more. No nature themed black metal band has won me over quite like Wyrd has.

There is a lot of variation on this album and the riffs repeat each other but only for short periods of time and change at just the right moment to keep the listener from getting bored. The intensity shifts throughout the album but flows perfectly so the listener feels like they are traveling some journey within the realms of the world Wyrd has created. Sometimes the song has a break and Wyrd builds up a very folk melody that makes me picture a time long ago. And if you listen carefully you can hear sounds of battle and the call of bag-pipes to the fallen warriors. Soooo good.

For fans of Agalloch, Drudkh, Woods Of Ypres, Falkenbach, Bathory and other Norweigan forefathers.
